Tho Condition Of she Great

New York, February 4.-There was
q slight improvement in the condition Of
affairs on the river front this morning.
The steamship companies are nearly re-
covering from the stagnation of business
that the strike at first caused, and are
moving freight with more dispatch than
on any of the past four or five days.
Nowhere is this more noticeable than on
the East river front. Steamers are being
got away on their regular sailing days,
and freight lines are once more receiving
aud delivering goods. In most cases
work on steamer piers is beirg done by
green men. and on freight lines by deck
hands Of freight boats.
At headquarters of the Ocean Associa.
tion to-day it was said that Smith and
McNeith, restaurant keepers, had agreed
to supply quantity of provisions for
the families Of the strikers and that
many landlords bad agreed not to press
them for rent. Supplies we're offered
also by butchers and bakers. The
strikers on the pier of the New Haven
and Hartford Railroad, East River, were
to-day admitted into the union. This
makes over 400 admitted this week.
Caulkers and joiaers at work repairing
the Guyandotte, the Old Dominion
steamer that was damaged by the ex.
plosion Of an internal machine, struck
to-day. They had no grievances but
struck out of sympathy with the freight
handlers. Their places will be filled to-
morrow by non-union men. The coop

mills,issotts Joined the Nsrike to. day.

NEW YoRK. February 4.-London
specials say the Marquis of Salisbury
has renewed the attempt to mediate be-
tween France and Germany. He Is in
constant communication with ambassa.
doris from both countries. France and
Germany alike profess the strongest de.
sire for peace but neither cures to take

ment. Numbers of kilograms have been
received in the House from European
capitols bringing the most contradictory
reports OF peace prospects alternating
with alarming war rumors. The panicky
state of the home and foreign exchanges
and fresh reports of French troops mess.
ing near the German frontier and sim.
liar movement on the part Of GerInsDy
have created perfect war fever here.
Salisbury speaking of the situation took
a somewhat hopeful view. It became
known on change to-day that German
financial agents were attempting to
negotiate a big war loan. The report
caused panic resulting In heavy fall
in all descriptions OF Continental secu-
rites. and although the report WAS de.

icky. A condition of great excitement
prevailed ut the close and is reflected in
all quarters tonight including the
House of Commons. Here the pros
poets of peace are the absorbing topic
and attract closer attention in the lob
by and ante.rooms than the debates in
the House itself.

ANGRY SILVER MEN.
They Talk of lmPeaehfnS Secre-
tary Manning.

WAsHISGroS, February 4--Secre-
tary Msuning's letter, presented to the
House last Wednesday. in reply to VIII
kins' resolution calling for Information
as to whether small United States notes
had been replaced with those of larger
denominations, WAS reseiyed with i'll
grace by q number of Representatives
who are regarded as .'silver men. or As
leaning toward soft money policy.
Some OF them after subiectiDg the docu-
ment to careful scrutiny, declare that.
aside from a notably disrespeetful tone,
the paper shows clearly that Secretary
Manning has violated the law regulating
the issue of United States notes, and
has also, as it is alleged. failed to make
purchases of silver bullion every month
as required by the Bland act. Several
consultations of an informal character
have been held by these members. and
it is learned that some Of the most ultra
silver men more than limited at their IN
tention to formulate charges of impeact-
msnt against the Secretary of the Treas
ury. Up to the present time, however,
it appears that there has been no con-
certed action looking to the adoption OF
such course.

WASHINGTON, February Acting
Secretary of the Treasury Muldrow has
rendered decision in the case of Milton
s. Wilson vs.. the Southern Pacific Rail
road Company. involving the title to a
quarter section of land near Los Angeles.
Wilson appealed from the decision of
the Commissioner of the General Land
Office. holdiug that the land he claimed
belonged to the railroad company by its
grant from Congress. Muldrow afiirms
this decision. Wilson claimed that the
land was within the limits of the Azusa
ranch at the date Of the act granting the
land to the railroad. The department
holds that the San Gabriel river is the
western boundary of the Azusa rancho
and that the land claimed by Wilson
was never within the boundary of that
rancho.

CHICAGO, February 4.-There are pre-
monitions of difficulty between the
publishers of the Chicago daily papers
and the Typographical Union. The
union has advanced the price of compo-
sition from 81 cents per thousand on af.
ternoon papers to 40 cents, and on morn.
ing papers from 40 cents to As cents, and
have given publishers the necessary
thirty days notice. The publishers de-
cline to accede to the advance, and de.
mand that the question shall be submit
ted to arbitration. The printers, on the
other hand, say they have been beaten
twice by arbitration and that they will
not submit their claims to any such tri.
bunal again. 1t is difficult to tell what
the result will be, as all of the publish.
ers stand together. The contest will be
watched with considerable interest as it
involves the situations of four or five
hundred men. The union men claim
that there are very few non-union men
in Chicago and that the publishers will
have to come to their terms or stop pub.
